Default Rhino & Raptor share motor?

Is it the Rhino that shares the motor with the raptor? I know one of yamaha's utility quads uses the same motor. Am I correct?

Yep, Both the Grizzly 660 Utility quad,and the new Rhino use the Rappy's engine.

Kinda makes you think our quads arent really "high performance" huh?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

I'd rather have the 660cc Yamaha than the 440cc in a rhino anyday. Same goes for Grizz

Every review I've read by people who have actually put this thing through the paces has been positive.........yet I am waiting to hear from some folks on these forums who have got their hands on one and really drove it hard.

They were supposed to ship last week........has anybody even "seen" one of these things on a showroom floor or out front?

thanks bigger. I found the Rhino and the Grizzly in the cross reference book at walmart for oil filters the other day, and thought I had heard that they had the same motor as the rappy, but I wanted to make sure.

Well, I just bought one of the Rhino 660's today and it kicks butt! It's unreal what that thing can do.

The Rhino and the Grizzly are the same but both are a little different than the Raptor, the head mostly from what I've seen.

Blackballed the punisher has one and took me for a ride at Dumont. They are a kick! A little under powered for the dunes but not bad, anywhere else power would not be a problem. The ride is real nice and they seem very stable.

I have not seen one at a dealer yet in CA. and I think he got his from a dealer in Utah.
